SUCCESSOR TO WEEKLY AMERICAN-DEMOCRAT MARLAND READY WITH PLANS THE "NEW DEAL" GOVERNOR Here is a picture of Oklahoma's "New Deal" governor, E. W. Marland, who apparently has astounded the "old dealers" with his extensive and revolutionary program. He's a business man Explorer Reports Dread Texas Cave Largest Of Kind BRADY, -New explorations of the "Devil's Sinkhole," whose forbidding aspect frightened away all but the most venturesome for decades. have shown it to be shaped like a vast hour -glass and the biggest cave of its kind yet discovered.

Only the great Padriac cave of southern France, says Dr. Frank E. Nicholson, who has explored every major covern in the United States, and many in foreign countries, rivals the Devil's Sinkhole as a vertical cave. The entrance to the Sinkhole is 80 feet in diameter. From the surface the walls slope together, then at a depth of about 200 feet open wide onto an undeground mountain peak.

This peak within a cave is about 600 feet high, Dr. Nicholson al his exploring party found, and a mile in circumference at the base. Miles of caverns and corridors ed with stalactites and stalagmites, rounded columns, marble-like and snow-encrusted thrones have been charted by the party. Water in the many lakes and ponds, some of which are 50 feet deep and clear as crystal, maintains a constant temperature of 38 degrees. Flower-like rock formations cover the bottoms of the pools.

As in the case of Carlsbad cavern, countless bats make their home in the cave. Marle Abshere Goes To a Fine Position Marle Abshere of the Anadarko Business College left this morning for Oklahoma City to go to work as assistant expert accountant in the office of M. J. Blaze, Certified Public Accountancy, Oklahoma City. This is one of the most important Public Accounting offices in Oklahoma and but few young men these days are lucky enough to get such a start in life.

But several things made it possible. First, he had the ambition and manhood to rise above the plodder of minor income to the high positions in the real business world among Real Men and was willing to pay the price of success. Next, he received his training at a school that stands at THE TOP with business officials- -with business colleges themselves, and accountants of Oklahoma, and best of all the young man himself, for Marl is the kind that will make good.

Man From Manhattan By GEORGE TUCKER NEW YORK-New York now has more fake jewelry shops than Paris Fifth avenue used to be called Center street. The first street -railway in the world began at Prince street and ran to Harlem river. and the first prima donna to visit America lived lo1 months in a house on South street. New York still doesn't know how to make They call it cornbread, but it's a sweetened mixture that tastes like corn cake.

Italcized entries that fascinate me: Peches flambees, moul mariniere, escargots, regnons a la fine, and Crepes Suzettes. Hand-rails leading down stairs in the subways are blackened and rusty -all except the tops, which have been made shiny by millions of hands. Lots Of DRAMA Of the thousands of clubs in the city, only 770 are listed in the telephone directory. New York swailows 500,000 pounds of potatoes a day. Most American typewriter key-boards now show the British pound mark, which is the equivalent of our dollar mark, but for years only a few were thus accoutered A high tide of 37 plays is now running through midtown.

Not since that orgy of process serving broke over Dempsey's head in 1927 has any celebrity faced such a storm of litigation as Rudy Vallee, whose current court tussle with Fay Webb is nearing a Mady Christains, German stage and screen actress, is getting even with Americans who "do" Berlin, Paris and London in three days. She "did" Broadway in six days, seeing 10 shows in that time. Karen Morley, on her first visit to New York since her marriage, got in 19 shows before returning to the coast. Starting Clean The facade of the Metropolitan Opera house has been scrubbed clean, starting the year with a clean face for the first time since I can remember. The London Times, 150 years old, once had an editor named Moberly Bell, who carried a cane with a bone handle.

The bone was out of his own ankle, he having injuried it while serving as foreign press correspondent in Egypt. With grim humor Bell is said to have flipped, "If my ankle won't serve me one way, I shall contpel it to serve me in another." The press-agent of new night club naively writes: "Although the restaurant has been open only one week, it still continues to draw huge crowds." Madison avenue street cars stop only every 2 squares, but 42nd street trolleys stop practically anywhere often in the center of the block. The strangest street car accident in the history of the city happened years ago on Third avenue. Hitting some obstruction, a rail splinter ploughed through the car, pinning a passenger through the leg to the car seat. It was hours before physicians could free him.

James Melton, the lyric tenor who bails from Georgia, attended the of Georgia, University of Florida and Vanderbilt university. His includes a Japanese cook, a Chinese maid, and secretary who is a Connecticut Yankee. Court House News Rollin nett of Hurt Cobb and Jess Witter of Carnegie were arrested by members of the sheriff's force Sattday, after they were alleged to broken into a barn six miles west off Binger and made way with eighteen bushels of cane seed.

Ever notice what a task it is? A copybook quotation says: The greatest single contribution any member can make is just to be present. It might be a good idea to ponder on that sentence a few moments, then plan to attend the chamber of commerce banquet at the Christian church tonight. We are sure your presence will be appreciated more than you realize. Before we emerged from the good old warm blankets this a. we are reliably informed.

cars were passing through Anadarko, enroute to the inaugural ball. Tonight 1 will be a big night for many. They will be privileged to indulge to their heart's content in tripping what some term the more or less light fantastic. What's more, they will be engaging in this delightful pastime in the state's leading social centerthe capitol building--with Gov. Marland smiling upon them.

Many bands have been engaged to furnish music for the auspicious occasion. All floors will be packed to capacity and, as one wag puts it, folks will likely have to dance up and down instead of to and fro. A party driving through Oklahoma City this morning says that at 10 o'clock crowds were lined about the capitol like bees around a honey pot. And that the line extended clear to Thirteenth street. Anyway, we are for them in a whole souled manner, even though we have no desire or anxiety to mingle in the vast crowds.

If that is a sign of senility, make the most of it. The town's big shot says that some girls can get all the men they like. Others like all the men they can get. Banker Charley Clark is a member in good standing of the local coffee drinkers' brigade. In order to be slightly different he takes the beverage without benefit of milk--or what experienced waiters in the mud." Whether or not he uses sugar we cannot say.

But what we started to relate is that Charley is a mechanic as well as an experienced counting room worker, a combination seldom found in the banker. Today when a cafe chair tried to throw him, he very deliberately finished his coffee, took a half dollar from his pocket and proceeded to fix the dang thing. And what's more, he got the job done. It seems that it was a minor repair, but he knew how to proceed with it, which is the main thing in attacking any problem. Today's Chuckle They are telling one now about the guy who ate nuts with his meals because he always bolted his food.

The duties and responsibilities of the office of county judge are such that it requires a person of exceptional ability to fill the office. Mr. Barney is admirably suited for the position, and his many friends over the county join in extending him every wish for a successful administration of the duties of his new office.
